After recent cases of Children being forced to proclaim that "Allah is the one true God" at a local Mosque and the Two Children being detained in school for not joining in Islamic prayers, we feel it is time that the Department for Education gave Parents the right to "opt out" their Children from certain religious studies. We do not punish Muslim Children for not joining in our Christian celebrations and prayer so why should our Children be Punished for the same, this is after all a Christian Country.

This is just ridiculous. Schools need to stick to actual academics and leave religion at home. Kids are being forced into things they dont understand and it needs to stop now.
